Dub

Thursday, October 18th, 2007

Last night we went to the Nectar Lounge in Seattle, to see our friends perform.  The band they are in is the Heavyweight Dub Champion.  The samples I had heard on iTunes were a little too far into the Reggae realm for my preference, but I thought it would be cool to see my friends performing.  Russell came with us, which was nice.  We haven’t gone out much lately, so heading out at 10:45 to go to a show was fun.

The crowd was mostly dreadlocked, and there was a small white girl waving a Jamaican flag.  There were also two people painting near the stage on an easel.  I’d never been to a show with an audience like that.  Russell and I were some of the only guys with short hair.

The live show was great.  The music live was way more like an Industrial/Electronica feel than the Reggae-ish feel of the music on iTunes.  With Jillian’s vocals it was right up my alley.  Good music for dancing or for coding to.  If you get a chance to see them, DO IT!
